Photographer’s Note

This was shot in a cellar in Beaune. Beaune is a very well known place for French wines. It is the capital of "Bourgogne" wines.
As found on the Internet :
"The Beaune vineyards are almost all located on the hillside and thus achieve a high percentage of premier crus in the classification of the climats (there are 39 premier crus in the 322 hectares of the Appellation). The Village A.O.C.s cover 128 ha. on the higher and lower parts of the slope."

There, you can taste wines. It's served in small cupels and you must not swallow wine, juste taste and then spit in barrels. I acknowledge that i didn't respect everything of what i said ;-)

This photo has been taken so as to show some very old bottles. I doubt they're very good. As i was told, on those kind of very old bottles, only one over 2 or 3 bottles is worth drinking. (Nevertheless, don't buy 3 bottles !)



This photo is an old photo that i took again in photo with my camera to have it numeric.
